The Fireblade concept was designed by independent stylist Idries Noah, and is meant to be a sharp new set of clothing for the already terrifying Corvette ZR1. Like the ZR1, the Fireblade finds a way to prominently display Chevy’s mighty 6.1-liter supercharged V-8 LS9 motor, this time under a broad piece of creased glass.

The `Vette redesign has certainly upped the visual drama, especially around the hugely flared rear haunches, which flow beautifully from a rising belt line.
